Patrick Bannister commented on CASSANDRA-14298:
-----------------------------------------------
I think I need to retract my recommendation to use LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8. I learned
this weekend that the C.UTF-8 locale is somewhat specific to Debian. (It's also
available on more recent versions of Fedora, as an optional add-on.)
I recommended it initially because it's more internationalization friendly than
picking a single language such as en_US.UTF-8. Unfortunately, since it's
specific to the Debian family, I think that makes it a poor choice for testing.
For the lack of a better solution, I recommend we use LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8.
Also - I'm working on standing up a RHEL 7.5 instance on AWS to test my work on
a different environment, to make sure there aren't more hidden environmental
dependencies like this.
Separately, as an update on the cqlshlib porting work: my forks of cassandra
and cassandra-dtest have cqlshlib3 branches with cqlshlib ported to straight
Python 3, with all cqlshlib unittests and all dtest cqlsh_tests passing, except
for test_describe (in test_cqlsh_output.py in the cqlshlib unit tests) and
test_unusual_dates (in cqlsh_tests.py in the dtests). I still want to try to
measure coverage (not sure how that's going to work with the dtests but it
should be doable with the unittests), and I definitely want to test these on
RHEL or some other non-Debian environment; I'll continue with that work this
week.

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build, Testing
> Reporter: Stefan Podkowinski
> Assignee: Patrick Bannister

> It appears that cqlsh-tests on builds.apache.org on all branches stopped
> working since we removed nosetests from the system environment. See e.g.
> [here|https://builds.apache.org/view/A-D/view/Cassandra/job/Cassandra-trunk-cqlsh-tests/458/cython=no,jdk=JDK%201.8%20(latest),label=cassandra/console].
> Looks like we either have to make nosetests available again or migrate to
> pytest as we did with dtests. Giving pytest a quick try resulted in many
> errors locally, but I haven't inspected them in detail yet.
